BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Radiologic selection criteria to identify patients likely to
benefit from endovascular stroke treatment are still controversial. In this post hoc analysis of …

Purpose To investigate whether the sedation mode (ie, conscious sedation [CS] vs general
anesthesia [GA]) affects the angiographic workflow applied for treatment of endovascular …

Introduction: General anaesthesia (GA) during mechanical thrombectomy (MT) might lead to
an inferior clinical outcome compared to conscious sedation (CS). It was hypothesised that …

Importance Optimal management of sedation and airway during thrombectomy for acute
ischemic stroke is controversial due to lack of evidence from randomized trials. Objective To …

Abstract Background and Purpose Although the treatment window for mechanical
thrombectomy (MT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has been extended in recent …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The optimal patient sedation during mechanical
thrombectomy for ischemic stroke in the extended time window is unknown. The purpose of …

Importance General anesthesia and procedural sedation are common practice for
mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke. However, risks and benefits of each …

Importance Endovascular therapy (EVT) is the standard of care for select patients who had a
stroke caused by a large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation, but there is uncertainty …

After years of investigation, including substantial studies, opinions continue to shift regarding
conscious sedation (CS) versus general anesthesia (GA) utilization in mechanical …

Abstract Background and Purpose: Clinical trials showed that anesthesia may not influence
the functional outcome in stroke patients with endovascular therapy; however, data are …
